What are the types of lift?

Standard lift

Common lift for residential projects. In this case, 8 ½ inches are needed for ceiling headroom with extension springs (installed over the two horizontal tracks). With torsion springs, 12 inches are needed (over the garage door header).

If there is an electric door opener, 2 extra inches must be added. If the door is higher than the opening, the ceiling headroom must be measured from the top of the door.
